What happens if you place a sim card into an iPhone that is not yours?

Just wondering… If someone stole my iphone (at&t) and restored it, giving me no possible way to track it, would they be able to put a sim card (at&t) and use it… Or would that allow me to possibly track it?

That's a good question. My phone got stolen before to

I think you are out of luck. If they throw away your old sim card and replace with theirs, then there's no way of tracking it

  • When someone gives you something, is it yours legally? Basically, my (now ex) boyfriend gave me 2 phones while we were together. One was because i lost one my phones and the other one was a gift. He never mentioned that i would have to give either of them back if and when we broke up. But now we have he is demanding i give them back. He has a perfectly good working IPhone 4S. So do i have to give them back or are they legally mine? Because neither me or my dad have money to buy me a new phone at the moment.
  • What Happens When You Take The Sim Card Out Of An Iphone 4s? If I Take The Sim Card Out Will I Still Be Able To Use My IPhone? What Features Will Work And What Features Won't? Will My Contacts/Notes/Texts Etc. Be Erased? Can I Still Get On The Internet If I Have Wi-Fi? Can I Still Use Maps On My IPhone?
  • What happens when you remove the SIM card from an IPhone 4s? My parents want to remove the SIM card from my phone at night so I can't text or call anyone. How would removing it (and then replacing it after about 8 hours) effect my phone, would it delete anything like my messages or call history etc? Also, if this happened pretty much every day would that have any other effects or not?
  • What happens if you buy a iPhone of eBay and it happens to be stolen? I typed in a serial number of an iPhone into apple checker and it said the phone has not been activated? The phone is still sealed in its box is the phone ok to buy?
